Quarantine Online Sets: Version 52

It was Los Angeleno's final Friday Night Showcase. They've been doing the Showcase for 7 months now and this was their final one. There wasn't any specific reason provided for ending the run.

Juana Everett started it all of with throwback 70s folk. She played her set solo with a guitar and microphone. Lyrics of the night: Fake Love.

Trevor Beld Jimenez was up next doing a rather short 3 minutes and 33 seconds set. It was a sweet 1 song set with Bob Dylan vocals and a harmonica and guitar just to add that additional comparison. While watching the set, I happened to notice that he had 2 stacks of books against the wall. I couldn't make out any of the titles.

The Magenta Rainbow was totally colorful, just like their name implies. They had this mix of "Weird Al" Yankovic, show tune duet and cruise ship vibes. And their cloths were loud to match. And yet, their two pet dogs seems oblivious to it all. Both were on the couch. The bigger of the two looked fast asleep. The smaller paid attention initially and then dosed off, as well. I guess the two dogs were all too use to this musical expression.

Duderella is a band I actually saw last year during Echo Park Rising at Sick City Records. Their music had an operatic Dracula vibe. Slow. Electronic. And flamboyant green hair.

Closing out the night for me was Muwosi. Her music involved sampling and a soulful voice. She vibed to her music and I'm sure those watching online did, as well. One other thing I noticed was how the sun lit up the room. The white glare was turned up, making her fade into what seemed like the a bit of heaven.
